Though the project failed Jodorowsky collaborated further with Moebius to lay the groundwork for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Incal#The_Jodoverse">his own Dune-like comicbook universe</a> (and <a href="http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2008/11/19/the-trailer-for-the.html">a trailer for an animated version of it</a> was even created).

Mapping out a Multifaceted Iconography.http://www.metafilter.com/49691/The%2DMercy%2DSeat%2DMapping%2Dout%2Da%2DMultifaceted%2DIconography
<a href="http://www.bibleorigins.net/cherubthroneside.html">The Mercy Seat.</a> Described in the book of Exodus, the throne of mercy has quite a variety of meanings. Some contemporary Christians are interested in "<a href="http://www.jesuswalk.com/kingdom/thrones.htm">reconstructing</a>" an image based on Egyptian and Phoenician culture. In Judaism, the <a href="http://dorsheitzedek.org/divrei/5763/5763-yk.htm">kisei rachamim</a> is part of the narrative of Yom Kippur, as God moves from the seat of justice to the seat of compassion. In medieval Europe, and especially in Germany, the <a href="http://dreifaltigkeit-altdorf.de/images/3gnadens.jpg">Gnadenstuhl</a> was a perfect <a href="http://images.google.com/images?client=safari&rls=en&q=gnadenstuhl&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi">representation</a> of the trinity, combining the cruxification, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit (usually a bird), into one image of mournful compassion. Nick Cave used the idea of the mercy seat as the frame for <a href="http://www.home.no/espen-murtnes/artists/nick_cave/lyrics/album/tender_prey/the_mercy_seat.html">a song about murder, sin, capital punishment, and atonement/redemption</a>, which was later covered by Johnny Cash (<a href="http://eloine.com/JohnnyCash/american3/clips/seat.mp3">mp3 clip</a>). The chair of mercy is even visually alluded to Jodorowsky's <a href="http://www.geocities.com/derwahrekranke/main.htm">Montana Sacra</a>, aka <a href="http://www.arthurmag.com/magpie/?p=651">Holy</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holy_Mountain_(film)">Mountain</a>. <small>(Which have been inspired in part by the <a href="http://www.siskiyous.edu/shasta/bib/B17.htm">Ascended Masters of Mount Shasta</a>, but that's technically another story - the bizarro California cultists story.)</small></a> tag:metafilter.com,2006:site.49691Fri, 03 Mar 2006 00:32:26 -0800jann
